    For sure the eyelid skin will loosen as we continue to age.

    My eyelids do close completely, and I also am now very sensitive to bright sunlight. The scar on my left eye still feels tight, but I have no problem closing my eye all the way.

    What feels pinchy? Your eyes or your scars? I had an upper bleph just about 2 years ago, and I still have very low tear production. When I feel like crying, I hardly get any tears. I've been meaning to go see an opthamologist about this. I'm worried my doctor inadvertently took out my tear glands.

  • Posted to Wanted a Chemical Brow Lift, but Got Uneven Droopy Eyebrows Instead - Manhattan, NY on 6 Sep 2011

    Hi, sorry I didn't get back to you sooner.
    I had it done a couple of years ago, but from what I remember, it did take at least 3 months to wear off, and I think it happened within a couple of days. I couldn't wait for my eyes to get back to normal, but I still to this day believe that the botox permanently affected my eyebrows. I felt like the heaviness in my upper eyelids was made worse by it, and that my muscles never regained their original position and strength. Anyway, I have since then had upper eyelid surgery, and I'm happy with it.
    Good luck to you.

  • Posted to Asymmetry Post Bleph - Sacramento, CA on 14 Apr 2011

    Did you have an upper or lower bleph?
    My eyes are already asymetrical. My right upper eyelid droops more than my left. This is pretty common. Most people I know who have upper eyelid sagging, their right eye sags more than the left.
    Anyway, I am getting an upper bleph, and I expect the asymetry will still be there afterwards.
    Good luck to you.
